Darlingtonia State Natural Site, Florence

Very small parking lot can sometimes get crowded for a few. Most people don't stay too long though. Bathroom building at the parking lot and picnic tables for a snack break. Fascinating area. Very short walk to the observation deck. I like how they have signs explaining about the area and plants. Tends to be sunnier than the coast if it's a foggy day. A cute stop while in Florence.

Really cool detour off the main highway to see some truly fascinating carnivorous plants. A short walk into the woods leads you to this other world where these things cover the ground - even in the winter! Highly recommend for any nature-lover looking for an interesting stop whole visiting the coast.

This is such an interesting, peaceful find just off 101. It's not much of a walk from the parking lot and is ADA accessible (paved path and boardwalk). There are picnic tables and restrooms next to the parking lot. We visited Father's Day weekend and there was only one other vehicle in the small parking lot.

Nice little trail featuring a stand if native pitcher plants. Very cool. Right off highway, so unfortunately loud. Otherwise a nice walk

Pretty cool little park. The flesh eating pants are a short walk from the parking lot maybe a 100ft. The trail is paved and accessible with a wheelchair or stroller
